Hi all, I've been bashing my head all day trying to get a kickstart working that takes two disks, creates two RAID1 devices, puts an LVM on one and then creates two LVs. The server has 2x 500GB hard drives. Here is the script, thus far: http://wiki.alteeve.com/index.php/Fedora13_KS_xenmaster001.ks As it is now, anaconda fails and the trace says that there is not enough space for the LV. This made me think that "--grow" wasn't being used. So I changed the "--size=500 --grow" to "--size=50000 --grow" and it installed. However! This is what pvscan shows me post install: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@xenmaster001 ~]# pvscan PV /dev/md1 VG vg01 lvm2 [232.75 GiB / 191.69 GiB free] PV /dev/sdb3 lvm2 [232.76 GiB] Total: 2 [465.51 GiB] / in use: 1 [232.75 GiB] / in no VG: 1 [232.76 GiB] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- It looks like it created TWO physical volumes. If I look at the actual drives, it gets even weirder: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@xenmaster001 ~]# fdisk /dev/sda WARNING: DOS-compatible mode is deprecated. It's strongly recommended to switch off the mode (command 'c') and change display units to sectors (command 'u').

So, I decided to run a manual install to see what kickstart script was created. That came out really weird, too: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- #clearpart --none --drives=sda,sdb #ignoredisk --only-use=sda,sdb #raid /boot --fstype=ext3 --level=1 --device=md0 raid.2db68162-2542-41c7-baca-d2b76328d459 raid.None #raid pv.84iuZQ-4p9R-iOK1-XfJr-pfPz-1QJQ-UqLPYW --level=1 --device=md1 raid.None raid.None #part raid.None --onpart=sda1 #part raid.None --grow --asprimary --size=500 #part raid.None --asprimary --size=250 #part raid.None --grow --asprimary --size=500 #volgroup vg_01 --pesize=32768 pv.84iuZQ-4p9R-iOK1-XfJr-pfPz-1QJQ-UqLPYW #logvol / --fstype=ext3 --name=lv_root --vgname=vg_01 --size=40864 #logvol swap --name=lv_swap --vgname=vg_01 --size=2048 bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=sda,sdb --append="rhgb quiet" ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Am I doing something terribly daft, or is there a bug?
